Springfield, PA, Gauntlet Press, 1995. Limited Edition. Hardback. 57/500 Copies. A fine copy, without jacket in slipcase as issued. Red leatherette in black leatherette case. Perhaps Matheson's best known work, though over time I suspect The Shrinking Man to claim that trivial title. The four film adaptations, most recently with Will Smith in 2007, have helped cement the book's place in horror history. Placed 65th in the NPR best 100 SF books, also present in the esteemed Stephen Jones' Horror: 100 Best Books. A lovely copy. Signed by the author, Dan Simmons who provides the introduction, Dennis Etchison who provides the afterword and George Clayton Johnson who provides a further introduction. [6463, Hyraxia Books].
